Nice pick by the Pacers I wouldn't say he was the guy I wanted but rather hoped we would end up with him. If that makes any sense. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FKIM01 Posted June 24, 2022 Report Share Posted June 24, 2022 7 hours ago, BGleas said: Agree. Look at Juwan Morgan as an example. While he stayed at IU 4 years, that's not really relevant to what I'm about to say, his situation could be that of any player who left early and was undrafted. With that said, Morgan went undrafted but has gone on to play in parts of 3 NBA seasons, has started in the playoffs for Utah, and while on a 2-Way contract this year was on the Celtics active roster during the playoffs/NBA Finals. Add to it, his estimated career earnings so far is just shy of $2.5M That's amazing to be honest. To be sure, he was a good college player, but I have to think that this was little more than a pipe dream when he first came to IU. I honestly didn't peg him as an NBA player when he LEFT IU. Good for Juwan. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has deals with Merchant’s Bank of Indiana, Pennzoil and, through the Hoosiers For Good NIL. You still need to get over it... I honestly believe this Purdue poster means no harm and is more fair-minded about IU than most of us (self included) are about Turdue. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kudos to him! Just think how many years a typical college grad would have to work to gross $2.5 million... Hard to fault kids for chasing their dreams when you see stories like this. I'm just hopeful that they build finishing their college degrees into their financial plan if they don't quite reach those NBA millions. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess somebody had to make a move to make the deal work because the Lakers don't have enough assets to trade. It's a funny marriage if it happens. It's the "if we turn 40 and we aren't married by then, you and I get married" kind of deal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ja/Durant/JJJ vs Steph/Klay/Green in the playoffs next year. JJJ would have to be involved in the trade along with Zaire Williams and probably a bunch of other picks and players. I think you would try to hold on to Bane to have another shooter…it would gut your team likely. Problem is doubt KD is wanting to go to a non coastal team. Like the Pelicans would be a perfect fit. Could easily center a trade around Zion and then have McCollum, Ingram, and KD but I know he wouldn’t go there. Boston makes sense with Brown and picks. Could Washington move enough picks and young pieces to pair him up with Beal? To me Phoenix is the logical fit. Ayton plus Bridges for KD. Paul window is closing fast and him and KD plus Booker and Johnson would be a nice core for a couple years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgambill Posted June 27, 2022 Report Share Posted June 27, 2022 I already love what Houston added in the draft but with what is happening in Brooklyn they are about to hit the lottery jackpot…KD and Kyrie bolt and Brooklyn is going to suck. Similar to the Boston situation with them. Twice they been burned by big three. Green, Jabari Smith, Eason, Wendall Moore plus a ton of cap space once Wall is gone plus all those Brooklyn picks. Locked and loaded. Wish Pacers could be that lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgambill Posted June 27, 2022 Report Share Posted June 27, 2022 I will say this to Kyrie….should look at what happened with Oladipo….opt out of 36 million at your own peril. No assurances he will make up that money after taking a pay cut to play with Lakers. We saw Russ fall off a cliff…Kyrie is on the verge of that too.
